If you jumped from space back to the earth how long would it take?

That depends how far from Earth you start, and how fast you go.

It would take approximately 8-10 minutes to fall from space back to Earth, depending on the height from which you jump. During this time, you would experience free fall until reaching terminal velocity, at which point your speed stabilizes. Upon reaching the ground, you would want to ensure you had a safe method of slowing down or landing to avoid injury.

How would an astronaut aboard a space shuttle go about dropping an object down to earth?
The astronaut would release the object outside of the space shuttle and let it fall towards Earth due to gravity. The object would follow a trajectory back to Earth's surface without the need for further propulsion.
If you high jumped on the moon would you return to the moons surface?
Yes, when you high jump on the moon, you would eventually come back down to the moon's surface due to the moon's gravity pulling you back down. The force of gravity on the moon is about one-sixth of that on Earth, so you would experience a slower descent back to the surface compared to on Earth.
What spacecraft traveled back and forth between earth and space?
Space shuttles
How does NASA get its space probes back to earth?
NASA gets it's space probes back to earth by computer commands. However. most space probes are not designed for re-entry and remain in space to continuously monitor planets and such.
What happens when a space shuttle leaves your atmosphere?
It will go to space and come back to earth in 2 years.
How does observation helped you in predicting patterns?
You notice circumstances that are repeatable. If someone jumps in the air they come back to earth. As a child you will have noticed this and would have become confident that if you jumped in the air you would come back.
Is same-sex marriage legal in space?
No power on earth has claimed dominion of space, and as such, space is lawless. Nothing is technically illegal, nor is it legal. There would still be consequences if you were gay married in space and came back to earth.

Which part of the space craft came back to earth?
The space shuttle.
If you dug a hole to the center of the earth and jumped in would you stay at the center because of gravity?
If the hole went right through the Earth, you would gather enough speed to continue to the other side. Assuming no resistance, you would move back and forth forever, like an ideal pendulum moves back and forth forever. i think that if you fell in the hole the earth's gravity would pull you apart.
If there was a spaceship in space how would it get rid of the garbage?
Well ii would suck it up back inside of the spaceship then go back to earth a go put it in the dumpster.
Can the international space station be returned to earth for repairs?
No. It would be too expensive and impracticable. Any repairs required are easier and cheaper to do in space. It would probably be cheaper to build an entirely new Space station than to return the old one to Earth, repair it and put it back up into Earth orbit.
If you high jumped on the moon would you return to the moons surface?
Yes, when you high jump on the moon, you would eventually come back down to the moon's surface due to the moon's gravity pulling you back down. The force of gravity on the moon is about one-sixth of that on Earth, so you would experience a slower descent back to the surface compared to on Earth.
Where do astronauts live?
In space during missions and at their training centers while on earth
How do space probes get information back to Earth when in space?
threw flying Jews

When can a meteorite enter an alien galaxy?
Never. A "meteorite" is a space rock that fell through the Earth's atmosphere and became a "meteor", and survived the fall to the Earth. No meteorite from Earth will ever be taken to an "alien galaxy". Why would we? We'll find plenty of space rocks in space, where we don't have to use fuel to lift them back into space from the Earth's surface.
